As you journey through life it's easy to look back and see the failures, but what if we change our perspective to look back and see the detours that led us to who we are today. Life is a journey and all our previous experiences are shaping us for who we are meant to be. Doors closing today may mean that you are stepping into your future calling.
"Sometimes the most scenic roads in life are the detours you don't mean to take."
Our journey has been full of twist and turns neither of us could have imagined, but today we look back for perspective and areas where we knew God was molding us. We aren't meant to have a perfect life with no pain, failure or loss. We are meant to grow through each of those moments so we can help others walk through them later in life. As servant leaders, we understand that we have a heart for helping others grow and sharing our experience can build trust and relationships.
"The past is like using your rear-view mirror in the car, it's good to glance back and see how far you've come, but if you stay too long you miss what's right in front of you."
